My reblog of this screencap from 1.6 The Shepherd ("Or perhaps he can." cackle) turned into a minor tag essay regarding headcanons, which I want to keep. So, blogging about my own tags, which seems... kind of arrogant, but whatever.
#you say creepy #I say
#Oh dear. Oh deary deary dear!
#and sheep boys and what I assumed at the time was the beginning of the post-Belle downward spin
#(but Snow Drifts ruined my timeline dammit)
#I had to change my headcanon
#to having picked the wrong twin by accident
#and genuinely not wanting to take Charming away from his farm
#and his mother
#because he knows there's no happy ending for the two of them
#he has parent/child feelz re: his convo with Emma post-Graham
#and re: his entire character #what am I thinking
#(like he foresaw a PRINCE meeting Snow but not said prince's premature death)
#(and he made sure there was a spare just in case but didn't actually think he would be necessary)
#idealized I know
#(and that last part doesn't really make sense I admit that
#leave me my illusions
#especially those pertaining to #sheep boys
(for more headcanons, see... a grand total of one: Rumple & Jefferson. The Emperor's New Clothes. You know you want it)
